2021 Purple Pride Award Recipient

Diane Moore — Art, Music and Theatre

“Diane Moore has long been an absolutely indispensable aid to the three very diverse and active Departments of Art, Music, and Theatre, for which she is the sole departmental administrative assistant. Diane makes all of our departments run smoothly, anticipating what is needed before we do, including innovative solutions to our COVID-related work-from-home tasks.

“Everyone deeply appreciates Diane as a friendly colleague – especially this year when we were all dealing with so much that was new, unexpected, and stressful. Diane Moore is truly in a class of her own. Clever and resourceful, she delegates to students those tasks they can handle and knows when there is another resource of which we could be taking better advantage. She really is a warm, kind person, and we feel very fortunate to work with her every day.”
